NEW YORK, Feb 5.-The dynamite explosion
ABOARD the Steamer Guyandotte suggested to
John N. Harland. who conducts q private de-
tective bureau at 1l5 Nassau street. the idea Of
protecting three celebrated millionaires from
similar danger. Jay Gould, William Waldorf
Astor and William K. Vanderbilt have severally
planned season of more sumptuous steam
yachting than has ever been known to pleasure
navigation. Gould had the finest American
yacht afioat until last summer, when Astor beat
him, and now Vanderbit's Alva is being COM
pleted in style to eclipse the other two De-
tective Harland convinced himself that anarch-
istic torpedoes would very probably be struggled
into these vessels by wild Anarchists, in order
to destroy the capitalists on board. and he.set
about convincing the imperiled men that they
had better hire him to perfect safeguards. But
he has met with Encouragement only in his
singular enterprise and he thus tells his ex-
perience to your correspondent: 81 first tackled

Special to the Indianapolis journal.
New YORK, Feb 5-The war between the
brewers Of lager beer and the retailers. growing
out of pool formed by the manufacturers to
raise prices, has evolved an attack by the retail
ers on the quality of the beverage Professor
Doremus. the analyst has been engaged by
tie retailers association to test samples Of beer
from all the pool breweries. in order to discover
salicylic acid. which has become, they aver, a
common ingredient of New 7 FORK beer. It is used
to keep from souring beer too scant in alcohol.
1t is urged that habtual drinking of the acidu-
lated beer causes cancer, and the case is fortified
by certain French medical authorities. On the
other hand, the chemist of the brewers main
tains that only small and harmless amount Of
a salicylic acid is used At all events, thor
ough exposure of the makeup Of New York
beers is likely.

Seventeen Red-Headed Girls.

Special to the indianapolis Journal
NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-The Bowery has an exh-
biton of red haired girls. It is in dime mu-
scum, the Cosmopolitan, just above Chatham
Square. Seventeen young women. with hair
ranging from strawberry blonde to deep Grim
son. are seated in row on a long platform and
submitted to the scrutiny and sarcasm of the
spectators. They were recruited principally
from the tobacco factories Of the East Side, and
are under promise of $40 week wages for the
week with three prizes in addition for beauty of
face, of department and of hair, the latter being
judged by the brightness of the color. claring
fraud has been discovered in the competition on
the last mentioned point The girl with the un-
deniably reddest hair was Nancy McGlynn, of
100 East Broadway, whose long, abundant tresses
were as red as blood--a hue quite unique and
startling. The other exhibits suspected that the
redness was artificial and they set about expos
ing the imposition They have learned so the
manager tells your correspondent that Nancy's
hair is naturally very light yellow, and that
on entering this show che had it dyed. You
can imagine what ruction seventeen red headed
girls could raise il their anger wasn't appeased."

sylvania-avenue line At that time, as undoubt
edIy is still the case, enough members OF Con-
gress held passes over the streetcar lines of the
City to prevent unfayorable legislation.
The car was weil-filled with passengers from
the Capitol, on their way up town, at the close
of the days session, and the car had reached the
foot of the hill before the conductor had reached
the rear platform in his collection of fares
Near the door sat sharp-looking gentleman
absorbed in the evening paper, and as the con-
ductor held out his hand for the customary
nickel, the passenger looked up and nodded in a
knowing sort of way. as If to intimate that it
was all right; but the conductor still waited
with outstretchei hand, if utterly oblivious
of the meaning of the nod. Finally the passen-
ger said:
II have pass" at the same time hunting in
his pocket for the bit of pasteboard which was
to save him the cents. After careful search he
failed to find the pass, having loft it at home.
MY name is -" he said, mentioning the
name of well-known New England member of
Congress, and since member of the Cabinet.
The conductor was strangely afflicted with deaf
ness at that particular time, and failed to hear
or pretended not to hear the name
sWhat did you sayp he asked.
Again the name was repeated this time in q
louder tone of voice But the affection of the
conductor was of such a serious nature that he
could not catch the name, and it was again re-
peated.
By this time the attention of the other passen-
gers on the car had been attracted by the con-
of them who understood that some congressman
carried fvecent passes, and interest was grow
ing in the case. Again the name was asked
''What name did you say2' and the passenger
this time shouted it in loud enough tones that
the passengers all caught it, and the conductor,
having accomplished his purpose Of making the
matter as public as possible, said .'Oh. all
right" and retreated to his station the Of
the car.
The passengers who had paid their fare looked
in astonisment at the man who would thus ex
pose himself to avoid the payment Of so small 9
sum as five cents
